How does lack of oxygen lead to heart attack or stroke?
The myocard (cardiac muscle), the muscle that makes your heart pump, needs oxygen to function. This oxygen is distributed through the blood that flows in the coronary arteries, which lie around the cardiac muscle. When there is not enough oxygen in your blood, the cardiac muscle does not get enough oxygen to fully function and your heart will not be able to function, over time. This starts at about 3 minutes after stopping to get oxygen.
Is the job of the circulatory system to bring fresh air to blood?
No. The circulatory system does transport various gasses around the body but the main gas the body needs is Oxygen (and not 'fresh air'). The blood transports breathed in Oxygen from the lungs into the tissues and organs and transports waste gasses such as carbon dioxide from the tissues and organs to the lungs to be expelled when breathing out. The circulatory system's job is transportation of the gasses to and from where they need to go in the body.
Why are the respiratory and circulatory system necessary for life?
Without these systems, we wouldn't be able to breathe or to pump blood throughout our body. We need these systems in order to stay alive.
By diffusion across a capillary wall.
What are the roles of the circulatory system?

How does your blood turn from Oxygenated to deoxygenated?
Your blood is never truly dexoygenated, but as it delivers oxygen to tissues the saturation of oxygen gets lower. When the blood reaches the alveoli of the lung oxygen diffuse from the higher concentration of the air to the lower concentration of the blood, where most of it binds to hemoglobin molecules.

Vena cava --> Right atrium --> Tricuspid valve--> Right ventricle --> Pulmonary artery --> Pulmonary semilunar valve --> Lungs --> Pulmonary vein --> Left atrium --> Mitral valve --> Left ventricle --> Aortic semilunar valve --> Aorta --> Carotid artery, Brachial artery, femoral artery, etc... --> Arterioles --> Capillaries --> Venules --> Veins --> Vena cava
If your asking about primary absorption in digestion and the absorption of nutrients into the body, then primary absorption is the first (primary) place in the body where nutrients are absorbed. In humans this takes place in the small intestines after the food has been broken down in the stomach and passed on to the small intestine.
Why a circulatory system disorder might be harmful to other body system?

What diseases affect the circulatory system?
diabetes amopng many others With each heartbeat, blood is sent throughout our bodies, carrying oxygen and nutrients to all of our cells. Each day, 2,000 gallons of blood travel many times through about 60,000 miles of blood vessels that branch and cross, linking the cells of our organs and body parts. From the hard-working heart to our thickest arteries to capillaries so thin that they can only be seen through a microscope, the heart and circulatory system (also called the cardiovascular system) are our body's lifeline, delivering blood to the body's tissues. also diabetes (i think)
3 mojor parts of the circulatory system?
